kalifire Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Watching for the first signs of the build, then seeing it all come together over the couple of months before gates open is a wonderful time of year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kalifire Posted October 16, 2021 Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) Maybe @deebeedoobee could mention it if an Eavis happens to appear during on a Pilton run? Edited October 16, 2021 by kalifire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomicide Posted October 16, 2021 Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) I'll give it a go, obvs me an Emily are bezzies so I'm sure she'll get up a ladder and turn it back on again if I ask. I was going to ask on the 19th when it'll be 6 years since the start of the Radiohead painting.

Ayrshire Chris Posted October 16, 2021 Report Share Posted October 16, 2021 Isnt the camera collaboration with the BBC? Though I suppose if the reason it’s off is to respect the privacy of the farm, as it says, then it’s them who will decide if it’s to be reinstated. Really missing it at the moment.

I'm guessing that while the site remains closed to visitors, and the signs stay up, that we'll continue to see the webcam left off. Switching it on might be seen by some as an invitation to visit.

That’s not really much different now to normal is it … the standard response has been to stick to the footpaths even in pre covid times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others seemed to be doing the same. Would love to see the camera back up working, can’t see it being too much of an intrusion as it points away from the farm and buildings. Unless the cows are shy and don’t like the publicity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padgey Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Hopefully they turn the camera back on the the start of the build in March, it's always been part of the build up in recent years for me watching the site grow and the fence go up. I think @Ayrshire Chris is right that the BBC control the camera judging by the statement on their website "To respect the privacy of the farm, we’ve switched off the live BBC Glastonbury Webcam for the time being. Instead, you can explore our beautiful archive shots." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernintendo Chalmers Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Just now, Big durbs said: It’s got to be time soon for a peep of the beautiful fields Surprise! The reason the camera's been switched off, taking advantage of the request to not walk around the fields due to Covid, is that the whole lot's been concreted over. No mud this year!

Ayrshire Chris Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 Missing seeing the changing seasons on the farm. Heading down next week for a break so might just stand at Mary’s Gate, respecting the instructions to stay off the farm, and shout ‘FFS, switch the bloody camera on’ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
